You are correct. And actually, This last week has been very hard with a variety of tough symptoms reappearing and some new ones as well. So let's just say, as Bob Dylan said in the song, "Now you don't/talk so loud." Due to its extreme discomfort and inconvenience to my dear wife, I am proceeding with due caution from now on.

Especially since you have had so many problems with seizures, etc. Plus, everyone reacts differently. I chose not to get the vaccine. Who knows how it will work with the meds I take for various conditions. I have enough on my plate with tm, cancer, and other health concerns.

Because on this side of the Pond we also are getting bombarded with advertisements advising seniors to get the inoculation. Shingles is another auto-immune disease in the Herpes-Simplex family, is that right? And TM is also an auto-immune disease similar to MS, correct? Then, accordingly, perhaps getting the Shingles vaccine might even suppress some TM symptoms, rather than risking an aggravation of symptoms. That would depend, of course, on how the vaccine actually worked to achieve the desired result. I will use myself as a test, if you all would like, and see what happens, if you can wait a month or so for any possible developments. I am retired and spend my days writing and some lecturing and have only domestic-type chores, so the risk of a life-degrading event, even were a flair-up to occur, is rather limited.

Does anyone have an opinion as to safety or otherwise, please? Past experience tells me my neurologist will give his usual helpful 'your choice' advice! Iris Sent from my iPad
